Got some additional work on the new pilot done. One of the revisions to add strength and a better attachment point to the existing front end, was to add an additional blocking to the front bottom board, to reach back and touch the existing front end.
Glued and screwed using pocket hole screws.
This really strengthened the front board. Back in the jig to start re-assembly.
That piece keeps reminding me of a B2 Stealth Bomber.
And got most of the pieces back in the right places with glue up, and additional screws.
A few more to place today and all back together.
Stay tuned.
